Lots of Love!

 Hello Everyone!

Michelle from the Design Team here and today’s inspiration are two fluffy sheep spreading lots of love whilst floating on the clouds! 

Supplies used:

Ewe Are The Best

Just Marrried

Bold Sentiments

This card is built in a box-style format to give it a fun 3D effect. I created multiple layers of soft pink cloud panels, ink blended and splattered with Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide and gold watercolour for a dreamy background. 

I then added plenty of red hearts all around as well as the the odd cloud here and there to carry that Valentine’s feel all the way through.

The star of the show has to be the sheep of course! I popped them up on acetate strips so they really look like they’re floating. Finally, the bold “lots of love” sentiment at the front ties it all together perfectly.

Sending lots of love your way today!

Pumpkin Fun!

Hello everyone!

Michelle here from the Design Team with a fun and festive card featuring my two favourite happy crocs on the hunt for the perfect pumpkin. They’ve made their way to the patch, and it looks like they’ve found the one!

Supplies used:

Snappy Before Coffee

Giant Pumpkin - Pumpkin Spice

Pumpkins - Trick Or Treaters

Fence - Ewe Are Moovellous

Pumpkin vines - Purrfect Day

Bold Sentiments

To create the scene, first, I ink blended soft clouds for the sky using Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide. Next I die cut 4 hillsides - 1 from white card stock that I ink blended with Twisted Citron and Lucky Clover Distress Oxides. For the remaining 3 hillsides, this was going to be the mud/ground that the pumpkins are growing in so I die cut them out of kraft card stock to help make things a bit quicker. I added a little bit of ink blending and splattered with Vintage Photo and Ground Espresso Distress Oxide to give it more depth.

I added rows of pumpkins and a cute pick-your-own sign behind a white picket fence to build the scene - all the images were all either stamped or printed and then coloured with alcohol markers. 

The crocs were coloured in bright greens to pop against all those rich autumn tones, and I just love how joyful they look with their prize pumpkin.

For the sentiment, I picked a simple one from the Bold Sentiments stamp set - ‘You are awesome’ as I think it says it all.

To complete the card, I adhered it to some white card stock, leaving a thin frame around it before mounting it onto a card base that I had ink blended a gingham pattern using Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide.

Thanks for visiting today. Hope you’re enjoying all the autumn crafty goodness!

Thanks for Everything

Happy Friday, DT Annalisa here! Today, I share a bright spring thank you card that features the Darling Daffodils and Bold Sentiments stamp sets from Time For Tea Designs.

For the background, I ink-blended black soot, chipped sapphire, picked raspberry, spiced marmalade and squeezed lemonade Distress Oxides with my Beautiful Blender Brushes. I added white splatter with a paintbrush, water and white watercolour paint.

Once the panel was dry, I die-cut it with the Sweet Scalloped Dies. I adhered this panel to a 5 3/4-inch by 4 1/16-inch white card base.

I ink-blended twisted citron and rustic wilderness onto white cardstock. I die-cut this panel with the largest Sweet Scalloped die and the Slimline Hillside Scene Dies. I added white splatter with a paintbrush, water and white watercolour paint. I used liquid glue to stick down the grass border to the card base. 

I stamped and coloured (with Copics) several images from Darling Daffodils and cut them out with their coordinating dies. I added white gel pen accents with a Gelly Roll Pen. 

I stamped 'thanks for everything' from the Bold Sentiments stamp set and die-cut it with the coordinating die set.

I used liquid glue to stick the images and sentiments to the card base to complete the card.

Llama tell you, love you lots!

 

Happy Saturday Teatimer's I have a cute llama card for you today for the Valentines inspiration week. It's a pretty quick card to make, with not much colouring so great when time is short.  

I began by cutting out the largest rectangle die from the Metric Sized Layering Dies and inked it up with Kitsch Flamingo, Worn Lipstick and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide inks. Then I layered the Scattered Hearts Stencil over the top and used the Wilted Violet to create the hearts. 

The adorable llamas are from the Llama Tell You clear stamp set which is full of cute stamps. I chose just to use the llamas today but there loads of images to create a full scene. I coloured them up with copic markers and tried to create a fluffy coat on them by adding dark little U's and blending them out a little. 

Setting them aside I created my sentiment by cutting out the Love You Lots Large Sentiment Die three times out of white card and layering it together to create some extra depth. Then added the smaller sentiment from the llama stamp set which I heat embossed in white onto black card so it stood out more with it being so small. 

I adhered everything together and added some extra details using a black and white gelli roll pen. I like these as they work well over the top of the oxide inks you just have to be careful not to smudge them whilst still wet. 

That was my last official Time for Tea card as I step down after having a wonderful couple of years on the team. I hope you have liked all the cards I've made you know I love the products though so I will still be creating with them so be sure to check back on my instagram for more inspiration. 

Thanks so much to Jo for keeping me around so long and thanks to all the Teatimer's for your love and support. 

Lllama Tell You, love you lots Natalie!

Fairy Happy Birthday

 Good afternoon Teatimers,

The sun shining through my window this morning has inspired me to share the bright and cheery card with you today. I've had these adorable Fairy's in my stash for a while and never seemed to get around to using them. Once I saw the fabulous Sky's the Limit background die from the latest release I knew they would be a perfect match.

To start I stamped and coloured my images using my Spectrum Noir Markers (colours listed below in order of lightest to darkest)

Toadstool - CR7, CR11, DR3 - BG1, BG3, BG5, BG6 

Skin - FS2, FS4, FS7, TN2

Blonde Hair - LY2, LY1,LY3, GB1, GB3

Brown Hair - GB8, GB10, EB4

Drk Brown Hair  - BG6, BG8, BG9, BG10

Orange - OR1, OR2, OR3 

Blue - TB2, TB3, TB4, TB5 

Wings - IB1, BT2

I die cut the background die from white card, removed the outline part and added colour to the inner sections using distress inks in the colours- Abandoned Coral, Candied Apple, Squeezed Lemonade, Spiced Marmalade, Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, Salty Ocean, Blueprint Sketch, Mermaid Lagoon and Speckled Egg.

I adhered the outline onto white card and pieced back in the inked sections. I cut a piece of white card using the grass die from the Slimline Hillside Die, again added colour with the green inks and and added this to the bottom of the die.

I added my images to the card to create the scene and stamped the sentiment I the top RH side of the card. The 'Happy' was stamped and die cut using the matching die from the Bold Sentiments set, this was added to the card using foam pads for dimension.

I created a slimline card blank from white card cut to size to leave a small border around the panel.

I finished off the card with a few randomly placed Enamel Dots.

For this card I used Stinkin' Cute Stamps. I coloured them with copics then used the Coordinating Dies to cut them out. I created the background using the Scene It Stencil along with some Peacock Feathers Distress Ink. I added a little Lucky Clover onto some green card it and die cut it using the Grass Die from the Slimline Hillside Scene Dies.

Treat Yourself

Hello, DT Kitty here. It's Thursday afternoon and time for my latest Time For Tea DT card. With Valentine's over that means Spring is on the way! I decided to create a slimline scene featuring some gorgeous bears...

For this card I used the Bears Picnic Stamp & Hillside Village Stamps (for the trees). I coloured them all with Copics and cut them out. I created the background by using the Scene It Stencil with some Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide Ink. I blended Twisted Citron & Mowed Lawn onto a strip of card and die cut it using the stitched border die from the Slimline Hillside Scene Dies. I used the Bold Sentiments Stamps for all the sentiments and used the coordinating Bold Sentiments Die to cut them out. I assembled everything onto the card with foam pads and added some heart embellishments to finish.

Hello crafty friends, Kitty here. As it's Thursday though it's time for my latest card. I used those kitties again as they are just perfect for Valentine's which is just around the corner...

For this card I used the Smitten Kitten Stamp Set. I coloured the images with Copics and cut them out. I created the background by firstly blending Kitsch Flamingo and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Inks. I then placed the Boho Tiles Stencil over the top and used Kitsch Flamingo and Picked Raspberry Inks. I die cut white card using the photo frame from the Memory Keeping Essentials Dies and the glitter heart from the same die set. I made it into a shaker panel and added sequins and gems. I used the Black Polka Dot Washi Tape for the strip at the top. Next I used the Bold Sentiments Stamps & Dies for both the sentiments. I popped all the pieces onto foam pads and added a heart embellishment to finish.

Thank you so much for stopping by today.

 Hello!

Today I'm sharing a card I made using the A2 Stitched Hearts Cover Die and Bold Sentiments sets from the recent release combined with Dog Gone Mutts.

I started by cutting the stitched heart border and inner stitched rectangle from white card using the A2 Stitched Hearts Cover die. I then added some clouds and grass onto the stitched rectangle using the Slimline Scene Builder stencil.

Next I stamped coloured and die cut the images and a sentiment from Dog Gone Mutts and adhered them to the card.  I then decided to add a bit of interest to the top of the scene and stamped and die cut another sentiment using Bold Sentiments.
